Saudade, Silêncio e Sombra
Teresa Tarouca
Longing, Silence, and Shadow
The longing, my love
Is the greatest torment
Of my life in pieces
Since that afternoon of that day
When the sound of your footsteps
Faded away forever
Memories make me recall
The silences in your gaze
Secrets in your voice
And that old melody
That the wind in the trees
Whispered just for us
Do you remember that time
When I sang at your feet
Verses that never ended
When the moonlight shone
And when the night dew
Kissed the roses in this garden
Distant and uncertain garden
I feel it so far yet so close
The past that haunts you
Daydreams, unreality
Silence, shadow, longing
Longing, silence, and shadow
